The ecology and evolution of microbial immune systems

30 September 2024, 9.00 AM - 1 October 2024, 5.00 PM

The Royal Society, London and online

Discussion meeting organised by Professor Edze Westra, Professor Stineke van Houte, Professor Uri Gophna and Professor Rotem Sorek.

Microbial immune systems are the centre of an exploding new field in microbiology. These systems are the origin of human immune functions and fascinating models for the evolution of complexity. This meeting will focus on the evolutionary aspects of these systems and their surprising ecological roles. The meeting will bring together scientists from diverse disciplines and stimulate fresh discussions.

There will be a poster session on Monday 30 September. If you would like to present a poster, please submit your proposed title, abstract (up to 200 words), author list, and the name of the proposed presenter and institution to the Scientific Programmes team no later than 30 August 2024.
